Religion: The Women's Rebellion

The altar of Philadelphia's Episcopal Church of the Advocate was
bannered with the words of the Apostle Paul: "In Christ there is
neither male nor female." The crowd, some 1,500 people who had packed
the church to witness the ordination of eleven new Episcopal priests,
jubilantly sang and prayed. But a few in the throng were anything but
joyous. When Bishop Daniel Corrigan asked if there was "any
impediment" to the ordinations, five Episcopal priests took the
microphone to reply.
